well. stacy and i survived the czech republic. (that says a lot more than you would think). prague was a lot of fun though, and we got to take in some cool sights, experiences, and unforgetful moments.. lots of old buildings, cool architecture, bridges.. we stayed in a total dive which made for the unforgetable moments, but we just made sure we were there before dark, and after an encounter with a homeless woman in our room at 3am, we made sure to never forget to lock the door again! (mom, i was going to leave this out so you wouldnt worry, but ive talked to you since, so you know that we are okay, and that i could totally take her anyways..)

we got into budapest 4 days ago now and i really cant believe how fast its gone by. were staying in a super cute hostel on the pest side. our first day we spent at a turkish bathhouse within walking distance from our place.. it was way too cool.. both indoor and outdoor pools of all different temperatures.. saunas, steamrooms.. the next day we went to octagon square and did some shopping, saw a castle, and ended up getting tickets to "vampirok" -- the sweetest hungarian musical ever.. man that was fun. the theme song was to the tune "total eclipse of the heart" which will give a little insight to just how sweet it was.. saturday we spent the morning at a chinese market, and from there just walked around the city.. today is day 59. its a sunday. all of the shops were closed, because pretty much everything is everywhere in europe on a sunday, so, we took the opportunity to go back to the bathhouse.. we soaked, steamed, and sauna'ed the day away.. im booked for a massage in about half an hour, then im going to have the best sleep of my life..

tomorrow, frankfurt. last stop.
